The load-bearing capacity of steel is adopted for buildings many times higher than those made of other materials.
Since structural steel must be protected from corrosion, the skeleton is either covered by curtain walls or surfaced in concrete or, more rarely, painted.
The framed structures works for the constructions of arcs and trusses.
